Can play all three forward positions and is plenty versatile. Solid defensively, he plays an energy game and can also display physicality, despite modest size. Is not afraid of mixing it up in the corners. Is good on face-offs.

Flaws:

Lacks the strength required to win more physical battles all over the ice, especially against big NHL defenders. Also lacks offensive consistency. Overall, he is not a huge scoring threat at the highest level. Is injury-prone.
